It was only on Saturday, while spending 8 hours in the car driving to and from London, that I discovered my love for Lana Del Rey. Before then I hadn't really listened to her music much and always thought it was a bit boring. But on Saturday something about her album struck a chord in my heart and I feel like through her music I feel like I know her personally. I am not kidding her voice is so enchanting and magical I have spent the last few days constantly listening to her music and I know all the words to the songs on her album, sad I know! Anyway here are 5 really interesting facts that I have found out about her:

1. Her real name is Lizzie Grant (Elizabeth Grant is her birth name), it was her fans that gave her the name Lana Del Rey. Personally I much prefer Lana Del Rey as it has more of an edge to it.

2. She is a Gemini like me!!!! She was born on June 21, 1986 in New York and went to a boarding school Connecticut.

3. Born to die is actually her second album, but first album as Lana Del Rey!

My favourite tracks from the album are
